Reviews
Stayed at Ariel House with my family from June 28 - July 1st. Hospitable service by staff (thank you Julien!!) clean and spacious rooms, excellent breakfast, and nice quiet neighbourhood. Easy access to with DART to downtown core. I would stay here again anytime!!
We had a truly lovely stay! Everything was impeccable, from the warm welcome at reception to the delicious breakfast each morning. It is difficult to highlight just one aspect when everything was outstanding, but Emerson, Giuliana, and the entire staff deserve special recognition. They were always kind, attentive, efficient, and eager to help, making our experience even more memorable. We will definitely be back and will gladly recommend this hotel to family and friends. Thank you for such wonderful hospitality!
Spacious and clean room with a nice view of the back garden at ground level. Breakfast was plentiful and nice. Appreciated the 24hrs in-person check-in even though we arrived midnight. And of course the self-service Nespresso machine in the Drawing Room is indeed a draw! Staff were kept busy yet able to attend to guests timely and professionally, amongst which Engin is one of many such staff. A lovely start in Dublin to our holiday in Ireland.
Gorgeous, period property, in a lovely, leafy road. We arrived super early & dropped our bags & headed off to explore. The hotel is a 2 minute walk to Lansdowne Road Dart Station. 2-3 stops & you're in the city. I was upgraded to the family room, which was big with 2 big beds, very comfy. Complimentary water. Windows that open to let real air in which was a bonus as it did get warm. It was really quiet too. There's a delightful lounge with original features that offers somewhere to sit to enjoy a complimentary hot drink & biscuits. Breakfast served in the conservatory was excellent. I had salmon & potato cakes the first day & vegetarian breakfast the second, with an added sausage. My friend had poached eggs both days & his only gripe was that they were tepid both days but perfectly edible. Good coffee & a choice of small pastries. This hotel was a great find in a really nice area. Would highly recommend & would definitely stay again.
Thank you to the staff, you were endlessly helpful and kind. We loved our stay with you. The room was cozy, quiet and the TV was castable meaning YouTube/Netflix access which was appreciated. Plenty of pillows and my wife commented a few times about how well she slept (meaning she found the bed to be comfortable). The breakfast was delicious, prepared fresh and a great way to start the day. The front (sitting) was especially handy and inviting while prepping for the day. Some light snacks and drinks were available too! It's VERY convenient if you plan on using DART, the train was just steps away! But never noticed or noisy. Same with walkable food options, plan on 10min walk to pizza, sandwich, Mexican and other more local places. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend staying here!
